On Monday evening, Jeanne Salander mentioned a GREAT BLUE HERON (GBHE)
colony that she had seen in North San Jose.  I stopped after work today and
found three GBHE nests with a total of at least 7 large chicks.  This is in
an area called River Oaks Park along Coyote Creek.  To get there take
Montague Expressway north, turn left on River Oaks Parkway.  Drive past
Cadence and turn right into the Milbrook residential development.  Snake
your way through the development to the levee trail at the end of Ovation
Court.  Nests are easily visible from the levee on the open leafless
branches of some tall trees.

Other birds included RED-SHOULDERED HAWK, BELTED KINGFISHER, BULLOCK'S
ORIOLE and WESTERN TANAGER.  A GREAT EGRET perched high up  near the GBHE
nests, but I couldn't locate a nest.
